I need to travel to Mumbai for work but I have a criminal record from 9 years ago. Do I need to declare this as I serverd a custodial sentence when applying for my visa or will my visa be rejected if I don't declare it?

Hi Asia!!,I don't think there is any law in any country that disallow you to send money. Any business basic requirement is Capital (MONEY). The only thing is that the amount that you likely to send....Some country restrict to certain amount..just check it out or Google: MoneyGram International and Western Union.Regards.

I was born in India and came over here 37 years ago. Now I have British Passporrt for the past 36 years. The problem is that every time I want to go to India I have to apply for a Visa. One thing I don't understand why they ask for bank statements to show how much money i have in my bank account or if I am working then a letter from the employer. If I can afford to go to India then I'll have enough money to support myself. The way these people behave in Indian Embassey, as though I will start claiming benfit from Indian government. Indian government doesn't support their own poor people, let alone doing something for us. I hate these people who makes our lives so difficult. I am ashamed to call myself Indian as people laught at Indian people at the Embassey. They really annoy the tourist by picking silly little things i.e. oh the form should be filled in black in and not blue. Those Indian basterds are so annoying. I have been to so many countries and never experienced any problem. But going to bloody India is a nightmare. These bloody Indians needs to sort them self out. All they after are bloody bribery. They are bloody corrupt bastards.

Is getting a visa for India like that for everyone or just Indians that have lived in the uk for many years and wishing to visit their homeland?

I am English and plan to visit India later this year..2010. Having read the above post, do i really need to show my bank statements?, not that it is a problem, it's just that i feel such things are private and do not see why i have to declare how much money i have to all and sundry (so to speak).

To @ Raniji If you were an Indian citizen for 37 years you should get yourself a so called POI card (Person of Indian origin card ) or an OIC card (Overseas Indian Citizen card). Then you can travel to India visa free and as often as you want.But these 'cards' cot fair amount of money. Contact your local Indian High Commision or the Deputy High Commision. But if you have such a negative attitude towards Indians then why travel to Indian at all? BTW you will not believe what in Indians have to go thru when they apply for visas to any so called first world country.

To @ LILLY You will require a visa for India.Depending on how long you want to stay you may have to show that you have enough finances to support yourself. I would suggest you get your visa thru a travel agency especialised in travel to India, they may have visa service as well. Ask them if they can get you a visa before you do the booking with them.

hi can anyone help. I have seen a job in India and I want to apply for it. I live in the uk and am a british citizen but my husband is originally fom India but he is now just turned a british citizen. the job states that you must have the right to live and work in india. so if they offer me the job then can i apply for a work visa and does that give me the right to live and work in india.

I have lived in UK for 16 years (since i was 4), i was educated here. I have Portuguese passport i have been asked by Indian Visa Centre in Hayes to fill out a Non UK Resident form to go with my Visa application form. I don't understand why i had to do this. They also refused to see my bank statement, and i do not have any utility bills under my name as i live with my parents. Also, on the Non UK resident form it asked for my origin address, i have never lived in Portugal so i put down the address of our India home.

Do you think i will still be able to get a Tourist visa to India? Both my parents have Portguese passport and that is why i have it too.

I think maybe this issue is simply because you are applying for an Indian Visa in the UK without holding a UK passport. It would be simple if you had a UK Passport and were applying from the UK or a Portugese passport and applying from Portugal. It does sound complicated, but the only people who can explain the system of application really are the VFS visa processing offices or the Indian High Commission. Good luck !

Hi everyone!!I'm hoping to travel to Portugal in May and work as a dive instructor. However i got an impaired driving charge 6 yrs ago, which is a criminal record. I've paid all fines and honored my suspensions. Will this affect my work visa application? ...if so, will Portugal recognize a Canadian pardon? Ive been an upstanding member of society since my stupid mistake and know my pardon application will be approved, however, not likely by May.

Would it help if i had a written job offer to present to the Portugal embassy.Any info would be wonderfulThank you
